Overview

Artifacts is a sandbox MMORPG designed for code lovers, where you control your characters entirely through an HTTP API. Every action your characters can take corresponds to an endpoint you can interact with programmatically. This unique approach lets you automate gameplay, build custom tools, and explore new ways to play.

The API is fully documented using OpenAPI (view the docs here (opens in a new tab)). If you want to get started quickly, check out our Quickstart Guide.

Gameplay

Artifacts is a sandbox MMORPG with no predetermined path—you choose your own adventure. Send your characters into combat against monsters, gather resources using skills like mining and woodcutting, craft equipment, complete quests, and much more.

The game's economy is player-driven: players can sell and buy items on the Grand Exchange.
